We are in the middle of an ice storm today. It has been a strange Spring for sure!
I got a little bit of stitching done since the last update. Not a ton but it’s something!
Here is where I was last time,
And here is what I have gotten done,
The third gourd is starting to take shape!
I have also been working on butterfly bookmarks and have added a little photo video for you to watch.

Welcome to my Blog! My world is my husband and son (soon to be moving into his own home) and my step-children (fully grown) and our two cats who are definitely ying and yang. My day job is as Deputy Clerk of my home town in Western, NY but when I get home I have two side gigs, one as a professional private baker, and two, as an Etsy shop owner selling vintage and antique dishes and accessories. I have been gardening and growing my own food since my grandfather taught me at the ripe old age of 5. I stitch, I bake, I grow food, I can and preserve, I grocery shop to save money and eat well and boy do I have massive to-do lists. I hope you enjoy my day to day writings.

Nice to see how that third gourd is growing! And your butterfly bookmark is really cute — such a good idea to show how the pattern developed.

I’ll pull up that slideshow on my laptop, but the first picture looks very nice.😄 the gourds are perking along very nicely, at least you have a gardening picture to work on through the storm!
